    NBC News Special Report 08/30/21 4:59:42 p.m. 4 minutes and 28 seconds KATE SNOW: Richard, you’ve been there for so long. You’ve covered this conflict for so long. This date — August 31, 2021 — will go down in history books as the end of this conflict. RICHARD ENGEL: It will and this was a humbling day for the United States, a day of humility for a world superpower. Afghanistan has been called the graveyard of empires. The British empire fought in Afghanistan and withdrew in defeat. The Soviet Union occupied Afghanistan for 10 years and withdrew in defeat. The United States fought in Afghanistan for 20 years and is now, tonight, withdrawing, just completed its withdrawal, in defeat. This is a difficult moment for the military.

But the larger story, that, after 20 years, the world's greatest military couldn't hold on and ultimately, handed the country back to the same extremists that they had toppled just a few weeks after 9/11. And there are lessons to be learned here and there are lessons that will be learned and they might be learned by the wrong actors. The reason Osama bin Laden carried out the attacks of 9/11 is he was on the ground in Afghanistan and he watched a group — a small group — of Islamist fighters defeat the Soviet Union.
